Oil pan damaged

Okay, I almost feel like I belong in CDA. I was loading my c14 (2008) onto a uhaul trailer for my big move to an area of the country that has much better roads to ride than Nebraska. Unfortunately I caught the drain plug and damaged the oil pan. Ugh..grr! Yep, I relived it a thousand times as to what I did wrong. But unfortunately can't go back, only forward. So my question is for anyone that has done an oil pan swap. What is the process? It looks like I will have to remove some plastic and probably the stock header and possibly the radiator. Anyone that has been through this and can give some good mechanical advice, I would appreciate it.
TIA

Just un bolt the radiator and lean it forward, with the fender covered with a towel. Remove the header, then swap the pan.
Make sure you replace the exhaust gaskets, and the cam sensor Oring while your are there!
